Ron Artest Hit Quotations

We lost, so it doesn't mean much how I guarded (Bryant). He hit that last shot, I was like, 'That's Kobe.' He is wide open; he is going to hit it.

(The official) got in the way by mistake and the ball hit his foot. It was one of those games. We'll get it back, though.

You've got to be ready at all times. They have a really good team and they showed us some things we needed to see. They can really shoot the ball. If you leave them open a little bit, they're going to hit shots.

He hit some big shots. Helped them win. I can imagine what he was going through. It must have been more intense for him, because it happened so suddenly.

I was just ready, ready for anything. I was surprised (at early success). I didn't expect to hit my first three. But I felt good, even early in the day I felt good. I've got to do a little more adjusting to the game. It will come with more games played.
